**promobucks** · 15 February 2012, 1:18 pm

I am new to this forum and new to the online casino industry as well. Land base casinos are very familiar to me i have been working about 13 years in casino industry as a slot specialist. Now i need some Suggestion for my first online gaming site bigwinpictures.com

Hi promobucks!

First off, I like the title presentation of your site, the font is nice and big and it looks like its making a statement and definetly catches your eye. The "You cant lose everytime" slogan is very true and adds a little humor in it! The black lay out is also a good pick, makes it looks very elegant.

The sections are pretty good and original, having a forum and a blog is awesome because it keeps people coming back so very well done there. Plus the video gallery is original even though it sends you to a YouTube page.

One thing I noticed and that im not a very big fan of is the low quality of the casinos logos, I know they are very small and that has a lot to do with the fact that they are blurry. But it still gives out an unconscious feeling that the site was done in a hurry, even thought I'm sure that's not the case. I would try to work on giving them better quality and making them a tad bigger.

Also, even though the site is packed with good content, I would add a little more information on the Casino Reviews, I see you added the software they use, currency, license, etc but I would still add at least a couple of sentences talking about the casino itself to give it a more personalized feel for it, im sure your visitors would appreciate that.

You are on the right track and overall I like your site a lot! I hope my suggestions helped out a little bit and best of luck to you!

Thank you very much Gabriel for your feedback. I know that there is a problem with those small casino logos, they are blurry. Now i must increase size of logos and do better quality pictures to fill all casino logo box.

At the moment casino reviews is something what i looking for myself when i start playing. Only few lines where you can quickly see how much you get bonus, where casino is licensed and what software they use. But i think i am an experienced casino player and I do not need as much information as a beginner player who are depositing first time to some online casino. That's why i decide to add more info to all my casino reviews page so they serve better to all customers needs. I already modified one of my review page and will do the same to all the other reviews pages. Do you think this review page is better: bigwinpictures.com/casinoeuro.html ?

My first version of YouTube channel was embed player to my site but i didn't like that, you can only show 50 last videos on that player and video navigation was poor. I modified my Youtube channel and add new tab featured on it, so now i have back links to my site,forum,facebook and twitter also on my Youtube page and that's important to me. When i manage to find good, working player with good video navigation then i embed that player again to my video gallery page. But until then I will try to get along with my Youtube channel.

Thanks again.

Sounds great!

Yeah I like the upgrade on the review section, its the right direction to take! I noticed you added some more screenshots as well.

Best of luck to you! Talk to you soon!

Hi.
Site looks good. You need to check your spelling though - there are a lot of mistakes.
Also, a minor thing I suppose - on your latest post you list Snake Charmer as a Net Entertainment slot, it's not it's NextGen.
All the best

**promobucks** · 17 February 2012, 9:04 am

Thank you for your feedback slotmad. I changed Snake Charmer slot software to NextGen, thanks that you inform me of that mistake.
I have already asked one of my friend whose native language is English that he check spelling for me.

Hi. I like the look of the site very much and hope things are going well. I would agree with the previous comment that the casino reviews need more detail. I'm very new here too so not sure what the rules are on, well, on anything, but if you are interested I can help with casino reviews and any other content you need. If you are then send me a private message, if not then good luck!

**oc+** · 21 February 2012, 2:27 am

Your casino reviews will need to be made longer and if possible try to include your own personal touch to it, what you think of it and not what most others suggest they enjoy about it.

**baldidiot** · 21 February 2012, 4:36 am

Neat idea for a site. I would definitely pad out the reviews a bit more, writing from the players perspective is a good idea. Also why not make specific recommendations - eg: which microgaming casinos do you play at personally. This kind of info is what a lot of players are looking for rather than huge lists of casinos.

Thank you for your feedback again!
I am currently doing new casino reviews to all of my reviews pages with pictures, more info, my personal experience etc.
I've played almost all the Microgaming, Playtech, RTG and Net-ent casinos myself and I have experience of them =)
It only takes a long time to make them because i have almost 100 reviews pages to do...I'll add them little by little to my site.

Sorry if what I said wasn't clear - what I meant was why not give a suggestion of your favourite microgaming casino etc.. Have the lists etc.. but also give an editorial recommendation.

I like the look of the site, I would just work a bit more on the casino reviews, keep going

**promobucks** · 29 February 2012, 5:26 pm

Thanks for the useful tips! I already changed all my blurry casino logos to bigger and better quality pictures and you were right (of course) it really changed my site outfit! At the moment i modify all my casino reviews and try to get them look like this one i already upload to server: http://bigwinpictures.com/Zodiaccasino.html

Perhaps you care to explain why you stole software images from our site?

For the reference see : xxxhttp://www.latestcasinobonuses.com/microgaming-casino.html , xxxhttp://www.latestcasinobonuses.com/rtg-casino.html and xxxhttp://www.latestcasinobonuses.com/playtech-casino.html

Not sure what happened with the images. I guess the person who created the website just took them from somewhere. Some of them don't look exactly as yours but just to be sure I have now changed all of them to reflect the official pics. Sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused and thank you for pointing out this mistake, it wasn't intented.

**Zuga** · 1 March 2012, 4:10 pm

thanx for removing the images

Very nice site, pretty good, the colors and images and animation is very nice, I am not sure about this sentence though "you can't lose every time" I am not sure but for me it sounds very negative, although trying to be the opposite, you need to confirm positivity without reminding people with a negative picture, that most people think they will fail every time. maybe I am wrong.

**lowrisk** · 22 May 2012, 6:06 pm

Hi,

One of the first things I would mention, is the colour scheme. My first site started out as white on black, and it was one of the main things people told me they disliked, and stated that most white on black sites are seedy. For instance, some porn sites are white on black. I know it's a very wide thing to say, but you don't want people to associate your site with anything seedy or dodgy.

It's worth mentioning, that when we inversed the colours, we saw a 50% rise in conversions and a lower bounce rate. So it is worth thinking about.

Maybe consider having your social media icons as a row on the vertical menus. For instance, in a row above the casino of the month. That way they are far more visible.

Also, instead of just photos and videos of games, why not speak to some AMs and perhaps try and get some free play embedded games?

I also agree, that the "you can't lose every time" could perhaps be changed

**promobucks** · 6 August 2012, 2:05 pm

Hi,

We have been doing a lot of changes to our site. Now we started also that free play section as you suggested. Our slogan is meant to be humorous and we have received a lot of positive feedback about that, so we don't wanna change it. =)

What do you think our latest improvements in our site? Any new thoughts?

Ps. I have never been on those porn sites that you mentioned, so I don't know what they look like =)
